so for the first time in four years, ford made money in the united states for the quarter. of course that's partly because of some of the big sales due to cash for clunkers helping the ford focus, the ford escape. you may not think of that as a green car but it met the rules. ford believes it will do fine even though the program is over. it says it will be solidly profitable in 2011. that's good news for not just detroit jobs but detroit spirits in a way. >> absolutely. i spent a lot of time in detroit inside the gm facility and it permiates the spirit of people in detroit. so good, good, good. good for them. jen westhoven, thank you. >>> jury selection today starts for a man accused of killing a tv anchor in arkansas. anne pressley found beaten in her bed and later died. curtis lavelle vance pleaded not guilty to all had charges. his attorneys say police coerced him into giving a dna sample before his arrest. >>> senator joe lieberman says he'll do anything he can to stop a health care bill that includes what is called a public option. yesterday he argued that kind of legi
